The Death List Novel - Chapter 225
Chapter 225 Phase IV
“The fourth stage, what should we do now?” Hill smiled bitterly on the guild channel. “I didn’t expect to be trapped in this birdcage!”
Qin Lun and the others’ plan started from the third stage. Due to their limited strength, they were basically unable to control it in detail. They could only adapt to the situation as it developed. They already knew that Cassie’s target was Master Weimar. Originally, the Great Druid should have basically destroyed Fink’s team in the third stage, completely eliminating their hidden dangers.
Then, in the fourth stage, Qin Lun, who had rushed back, saved the druid. Because Master Wei Ma didn’t trust Hill and Hansen, it was very difficult to testify against Cassie, so it could only be done by Qin Lun. However, one was an elven rookie who had some contact with him, and the other was a nephew. The consequences were extremely unpredictable.
Qin Lun and the others had also wanted to kill Vima, but they were the weakest of the three apostle guilds and could only choose to side with the druids. I hope she can defeat or chase away the expected Cassie team so that they can smoothly return to the shattered starry sky.
In this way, Vima should also reward them. Although the benefits weren’t as great as killing the druids, it eliminated the hidden dangers of Fink’s guild, repelling or killing some of the high-level apostles of Cassie’s guild. The equipment and skills left behind by the apostles would also make them profitable.
Of course, the worst case scenario is to enter the fifth stage. The so-called fifth stage was when Qin Lun failed to save Weima, and then attracted the revenge of Cassie’s team. If they reached that point, Qin Lun and the others would surely die, or even be annihilated.
As for the current situation, although they hadn’t entered the worst of the fifth stage, there were still some deviations in the third stage. There were still three people left in Fink’s team, only Qing Ming and Sen had died. If they couldn’t help Weima out of her trap, then not to mention the benefits, even people would die in this birdcage.
“Qin Lun, search Master Wei Ma’s surroundings. She should be carrying a communication item with her!” Hansen was the calmest of the three. The mercenaries were from the army, so it was normal for them to ask for help if they couldn’t beat them.
Qin Lun and Hill exchanged glances and immediately bent down to search around Master Wei Ma. The Great Druid was now completely devoid of strands, and if he had brought the message with him earlier, he would have fallen nearby.
“I found it!” Hill’s eyes lit up as he picked up a piece of emerald jade from the bushes. They had seen this kind of magic jade before in the camp. It was very expensive and could be used for long-distance communication with the help of a magic net.
“Sigh, I really can’t bear to attack them again!” Outside the birdcage, Cassie spread out her hands and shook her head helplessly. She raised her chin at the necromancer and said, “Randy, let’s begin!”
“Hehe, Randy, it’s your favorite part. You can enjoy the desperate expressions of some pitiful fellows again!” Aaron covered his mouth with his giant saber and giggled, “They didn’t think about it. How could we not even think about such a thing!”
“Shut up!” Randy glared at him angrily and raised the staff in his hand.
The huge emerald at the top of the staff slowly shone, giving off a hazy glow. In the next moment, a purple light rose from the top of the staff and drew an arc in the air towards the bird cage.
The purple light spread out with the wind, transforming into a square cube that encased a barrier around the giant bird cage. Hill had just crushed the jade when the colorful light that flew into the air was blocked by the cubic barrier outside.
This barrier wrapped around Cassie and the others, as well as the three remaining members of Fink’s team. Seeing this, Fink and the others immediately felt great regret. If they had known this, they wouldn’t have watched the show. However, they also understood that their lives were in the hands of others, so they could only endure it.
Currently, Cora was the only person left outside the barrier. The Esmira policewoman slowly retreated and took a deep look at everyone, as if she wanted to engrave their appearances in her heart. Then, she turned around and ran into the forest without turning her head.
The undead mages of Cassie and the others glanced in her direction and stopped paying attention. Even if Cora ran back to the camp and notified the others, it was already too late. By the time the other members of the camp arrived, everything that should have happened here would have happened, and the things that should have ended would have long since ended.
“Haha! Looks like we’ve reached the limit. This plan is really exciting. I haven’t enjoyed it this much in a long time!” Hill casually threw away the jade fragment and smiled at Qin Lun and Hansen.
The three murderers were quite open-minded. To them, death was just another novel experience.
If they were afraid of death, how could they plot to capture Fink and Cassie’s apostle team in such a difficult situation? However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and the second half of the plan was too complicated, unable to be controlled one by one. In the end, they were on the verge of failure!
“You guys go!” Cassie pointed at the birdcage barrier and ordered Fink and the others.
Fink and the others looked at each other speechlessly and attacked the thin barrier between the vine pillars of the birdcage with bitter faces. Every time they attacked, they would cause the barrier to tremble. The invisible barrier was thinning at a visible speed. However, the three of them were trying to protect themselves, so their attacks weren’t that intense, so they were a bit careless.
“I’ll go help them!” Aaron’s eyes lit up as he put down the huge saber on his shoulder.
‘”No need. Although the undead poison made from the fragments of the Lich Lord’s fate box is very powerful, Wei Ma is an old legendary expert after all. She needs some time to kill her will to resist. The time when they break through the barrier is just right for observation. The final life of a legendary expert is not easy to endure!” Cassie stopped the burly man and smiled. “Besides, I still have some words to communicate with them!”
Aaron frowned and stopped.
“Hi, Qin Lun!” Cassie shouted to the three people inside the barrier, “Do you have time to talk?”
“Oh, what does Sir Cassie want to talk about?” Qin Lun turned around and smiled, “Cassie is not your real name, is the real Cassie already dead?”
“No, Cassie is my real name, hehe!” Cassie waved her hand with a sunny face. “How did you guys guess my real identity?”
“I’m just lucky!” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up. He knew that Cassie was referring to his identity as an apostle. However, because Weima was here, the word “apostle” was hidden.
“Master Wei Ma is a legendary expert who has survived for over a thousand years. Even if he still has a bloodline left in the surface world, it is probably already very thin. Moreover, she had once said that in order to gain anything in the shelter camps, one had to pay for it. Therefore, we suspect that she would value you so much because you gave her some sort of token to represent her direct descendants. Only then did she gain her trust, as well as the rank seven Ghost Owl! ”
Cassie rolled his eyes and secretly nodded. He had indeed used the “road sign” to gain Weima’s trust. However, Gui Xiao only borrowed it temporarily, and Wei Ma didn’t give it to him. Even though the Ghost Owl was only a rank seven creature, it was no less useful in the dark than a rank nine creature.
If it wasn’t for the “road sign”, Wei Ma wouldn’t have given it to him.
“Roadmap” was their general term for all storyline symbols in the mission world. These symbols were only ordinary items, without any skill attributes, and were unique. Most of them could only be used once.
However, this type of token was very important in the eyes of the storyline characters. The value it contained was difficult to measure. If one planned properly, they would often bring huge benefits. For example, in Wei Ma’s eyes, Cassie had obtained the identity of a nephew from the token he had used this time.
When Wei Ma was alive, this identity only allowed Cassie to receive the protection of a druid in the shelter. However, he turned around and thought about what would happen if Wei Ma died.
At that time, Cassie had the chance to successfully inherit the legacy of a Legendary expert for more than a thousand years by relying on his status as a nephew!
Perhaps Cassie could not inherit the entire inheritance, but as long as they obtained one of the treasures that Weima had left behind in the camp, they would earn a fortune. Perhaps they would also obtain one or two legendary items.
This was the plan of Cassie and the others to enter the Neri world at all costs, and it was also the true value of the “road sign”!
“Is that all?” Cassie’s gaze flickered slightly. What Qin Lun said was indeed a flaw. However, it was not enough to think that he was an apostle. After all, no matter how few bloodline tokens Master Wei Ma left behind, there were still one or two in the outside world. It wasn’t necessarily the apostles who held them.
“The other thing is what you said to me. There are too many inducements!” Qin Lun understood Cassie’s intentions and immediately sighed. “You gave me the specific information about the Giant Cave. You reminded me that it was also you who was being monitored by Qing Ming. You also gave me information about Master Weimar’s departure. You used a rhino to test my summoned creature’s movements. After leaving the Giant Cave, you insisted on leading me back recklessly …”
Even though it was all a small gesture, it was inevitable that people would be suspicious if they were all focused on one person. Moreover, even at your age, this is too much of a joke. Unknowingly, you showed no signs of fear. What if it means that you are an idiot, or with your strength, you don’t care about these dangers at all!
We believe it should be the latter. Since you concealed your strength and deliberately guided our two guilds to engage in a deathmatch, and forcefully implicated yourself in it, there can only be one plan. That is, you hope to create a dangerous atmosphere for yourself by relying on the deadly battle between the two guilds, and lure your good aunt, Master Weimar, over! Do you want me to talk about it next? ”
“Hahaha, Cassie, you’re embarrassed!”
Aaron leaned on the horse knife and laughed heartily. The necromancer on the other side also grinned and smiled silently. Cassie had always been known as a ghost elf in their guild, and it was rare to see him being seen through to this extent. These two companions, who had been fooled by Cassie, viciously let out a mouthful of resentment.
“That’s enough!” Cassie rubbed her nose awkwardly and glared fiercely at her two unscrupulous companions.
“Since you have the answer, can you tell me how you can see through the connection between me and them?” Qin Lun smiled and drew a line between himself and his two companions.
